Economics and the digital library• Open access movement
– Methods: Self-archiving and OA journals
– Policies: Voluntary v. mandatory self-archiving
• Institutional repositories– Substantial resource investment
– Disappointing volume of faculty deposits
• Carnegie Mellon University Libraries’ faculty studies– 2006 – scholarly communication practices
– 2007 – self-archiving practices

2006 Faculty study findings• Some awareness of economic crisis with journals
• Some self-archiving
• Concerns
– Little concern about or understanding of copyright
– Widespread concern about open access journals
– Primary concern is promotion and tenure (peer review)
• Many believe access is not an issue in their discipline
• Outcome: Authors’ Rights and Wrongs program
– Sponsored by University Libraries and Office of Legal Counsel

2007 Faculty study
• Goal: understand
– Faculty self-archiving practice
– Opportunity to self-archive journal articles
• Method: code faculty publication lists found on web
– Phase I: Code publication type and access type
– Phase II: Code journal articles
What could be self-archived in compliance with policy?
Does self-archiving practice comply with policy?
Coders: Denise Troll Covey Kristin Heath Diane Covington Information Assistant

Coding issues• Path to publication lists: via department web site
• Determining publication type and journal title – Incomplete citations, unintelligible abbreviations
• User-unfriendly web sites and publication lists – Multiple lists, lack of visual cues for links, readability
• Counting faculty and their publications only once
– Assign faculty with multiple affiliations to home dept
– Eliminate redundant citations from publication lists

Current status• Carnegie Institute of Technology (school of engineering)
– Phase I and II done for all departments and institutes
• School of Computer Science– Phase I and II done for the Computer Science Department,
Human-Computer Interaction Institute, Robotics Institute, Institute for Software Research International, and Entertainment Technology Center
– Two other departments and institutes to do
• Five more colleges to do– College of Fine Arts
– College of Humanities and Social Sciences
– Heinz School of Public Policy
– Tepper School of Business
– Mellon College of Science

![Page 20: Faculty Self-Archiving: The Gap between Opportunity and Practice Denise Troll Covey Carnegie Mellon University Libraries DLF Forum – November 2007.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d415503460f94a1bbc3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Assessment of compliance
• Based on whether publisher policy
– Prohibits or allows self-archiving
– Prohibits, requires or allows the publisher version to be self-archived

Analysis of journal policy & practiceBase: All journal titles in which the faculty published that allow self-archiving
![Page 24: Faculty Self-Archiving: The Gap between Opportunity and Practice Denise Troll Covey Carnegie Mellon University Libraries DLF Forum – November 2007.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d415503460f94a1bbc3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Preliminary conclusions
• Like self-archiving practice, the opportunity
to self-archive varies across disciplines
• There is no direct correlation between
the opportunity to self-archive and
the practice of self-archiving
• Many faculty appear not to know or not to care
about publisher policy
![Page 25: Faculty Self-Archiving: The Gap between Opportunity and Practice Denise Troll Covey Carnegie Mellon University Libraries DLF Forum – November 2007.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d415503460f94a1bbc3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Preliminary conclusions continued
• Faculty who self-archive do not consistently– Self-archive articles they publish in the same journal
– Self-archive the same version of articles they publish in the same or different journals
• Faculty appear to update their publication lists and self-archive their work intermittently– They do not, for example, routinely go back to
Change set phrases specified by publishers
Replace article pre-prints or early technical report versions with article post-prints or publisher PDF files
![Page 26: Faculty Self-Archiving: The Gap between Opportunity and Practice Denise Troll Covey Carnegie Mellon University Libraries DLF Forum – November 2007.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d415503460f94a1bbc3/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Preliminary conclusions continued
• Full compliance with publisher policy
is a scheduling and maintenance
burden not likely to be borne
by busy faculty– Probably contributes to non-compliance and
the gap between opportunity and practice
– Could be a publisher strategy to discourage
self-archiving in practice while giving
the impression of supporting open
access

Preliminary conclusions continued
• Assessing full compliance with publisher
policy is a scheduling and maintenance
burden not likely to be borne by publishers– Potential impact on article submissions if publishers
charge authors with copyright infringement
– Probably contributes to non-compliance
![Page 28: Faculty Self-Archiving: The Gap between Opportunity and Practice Denise Troll Covey Carnegie Mellon University Libraries DLF Forum – November 2007.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d415503460f94a1bbc3/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Plans to apply the findings
• Increase campus awareness of the opportunity
to self-archive in compliance with publisher policy
– Distribute lists of journal titles and basic policies
– Meet with deans and departments
• Create competition *
– Name departments and faculty who self-archive
the greatest % of publications and journal articles
* Competition was suggested by Michael Carroll, legal counsel for Creative Commons

Plans continued
• Recruit faculty who self-archive to champion
the practice in their department or college
• Recruit faculty who self-archive and
faculty who do not self-archive to participate
in the Authors’ Rights and Wrongs program
– April 2008: Panel on open access in chemistry
![Page 30: Faculty Self-Archiving: The Gap between Opportunity and Practice Denise Troll Covey Carnegie Mellon University Libraries DLF Forum – November 2007.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d415503460f94a1bbc3/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Additional study
• Find out why faculty do not self-archive – Ideological opposition?
– No time?
– No easy-to-use tool?
– No training in how to use the tool?
• Help those who want to self-archive– Provide training in how to use existing tools
– Provide staff to archive their work for them
– Acquire or develop a new tool
